AI Pick for Columbus Blue Jackets vs Tampa Bay Lightning – NHL
The pick is Adam Fantilli: Over 2.5 shots on goal at 2.14.
It's a bet on a player, not on the game: it doesn't matter who wins as long as Adam Fantilli finishes above that number.
Over his last 12 games he averages 3.17 shots on goal, 0.67 above the line: the typical Adam Fantilli number is already on the pick's side.
The model doesn't settle for the bare average: it gives recent games more weight and arrives at a projection of 3, lower than the plain average because his most recent games came in below it, 0.5 above the line.
Real frequency is the most honest number: in 7 of the last 12 games, Adam Fantilli finished on the pick's side.
At 2.14, break-even means hitting about 5.6 out of every 12; the sample clears that comfortably, and that gap is the pick's value.
